:D

Going ahead of myself here considering all the absent players Milan will have in this game and many people's predictions for a Napoli win, but here is how it's gonna go:

Milan is taking this one with a full-of-heart display; Napoli will start inspired and flying all over the pitch putting Milan on the back-foot but Milan will take control on the game, slow it down and hit them when they least expect it (a quick counter or a dead-ball situation like a corner or free kick), which will break Napoli's spirit and open them up even more for the taking, as it often happens with immature, big-team wanna-bes ;)

feel free to quote me on this one :stuckup:
Quoted for truth.

I would like to see a team take the lead against Napoli to see how they'll cope. They are relying on sitting back & countering with frightening pace.

Yeah, I was kinda stunned seeing them bringing on Pandev and Zuniga from the bench.
Mazzarri now has the commodity to rest starters, something he wasn't able to do last year. Against half of the serie A teams Napoli won't even feel the absence of Lavezzi replaced by Pandev, the absence of a CB replaced by Britos, the absence of a wingback replaced by Zuniga or Gargano replaced by Dzemaili/Donadel. Then also Santana, Mascara etc.
Obviously most of them are not as good as the starters, but they are more good enough for beating Siena or Lecce, which last year subs (Dumitru, Sosa, Lucarelli, Yebda, Cribari, Blasi) weren't.
